Recently, Mr Pattnaik congratulated Droupadi Murmu for becoming the President with a beautiful sand sculpture.
Raksha Bandhan is a festival celebrated on the full moon, also known as Purnima, in the Shravan month of Hindu calendar. On this particular occasion, sisters tie rakhi around their brothers' wrists and wish them long life, happiness, and success. In exchange, the brothers promise to protect their sisters for the rest of their lives.
Mr Pattnaik also created beautiful sculpture of the annual Rath Yatra to pay respect to Lord Jagannath when the mega event was held last month. His sand art contained 125 chariots to mark the 125th Rath Yatra in Odisha.
